Howard Bach and Bob Malaythong

Howard Bach and Bob Malaythong of USA could not withstand the barrage of shots coming from the 2006 World Champion tandem of Cai Yun/Fu HaiFeng as they were eliminated in the quarterfinals of the 2008 Beijing Olympics today. Final score is 21-9, 21-10 and took only 29 minutes.

The US tandem from California had high hopes before the campaign, but their quest for gold is considered an impossible task by many. Had Tony Gunawan got his citizenship papers on time, chances of winning at least a medal would have been greater. Bach and Gunawan won the World Championships in 2005.
